1.tips
【详解】句意:老师们给书法新手提供有用的建议。tip为可数名词,意为 “建议、小贴士”,此处表示泛指,应用复数名词tips。
2.concentration
【详解】句意:良好的专注力能帮助你画出完美的人物形象。空格前“Good”是形容词,形容词后需要接名词作句子主语;concentrate对应的名词形式是concentration,表示“专注,专注力”,不可数名词,故填concentration。
3.undoubtedly
【详解】句意:这无疑是本次展览中最好的笔法作品。此处需要表达“毫无疑问”的含义。空格位于系动词is之后,形容词最高级the best之前。此处需要一个副词来修饰形容词最高级或整个句子,表示确定的语气。所给词doubt为名词或动词。其派生副词形式为undoubtedly,意为“毫无疑问地”。
4.presentation
【详解】句意:作品的展示将于明天上午开始。根据提示可知,定冠词The后面需要接名词,动词present的名词形式为presentation。故填presentation。
5.pressure
【详解】句意:过多的压力使得很难画出流畅的笔触。根据空格前的短语Too much(太多)可知,此处需要修饰不可数名词,动词press对应的名词形式为pressure。
6.breathe
【详解】句意:集中注意力时,记得均匀呼吸。remember to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“记得要做某事”。故填breathe。
7.A 8.B 9.B 10.C 11.A 12.C 13.A 14.A 15.C 16.B
【导语】本文讲述作者跟随爷爷学习水墨画,不断练习逐渐领悟国画之美,并且学校里很多同学也喜爱这项传统艺术的故事。
【详解】7.句意:当我在中学时,爷爷邀请我尝试水墨画。
根据下文作者学习绘画的积极经历可知,爷爷是鼓励而非强迫或警告。invited“邀请”,符合情境。refused“拒绝”,forced“强迫”,warned“警告”不符合长辈引导晚辈学习爱好的语境。
8.句意:起初,我认为它很无聊。
后文But表转折,见到爷爷作品后被震撼,说明一开始觉得无趣。boring“无聊的”,符合情境。easy“容易的”,useful“有用的”,exciting“令人激动的”均无法与后文的惊艳形成合理转折。
9.句意:他教我正确握笔,用水调和墨汁。
学习绘画技巧首先需要掌握正确的姿势和方法。correctly“正确地”,符合情境。heavily“沉重地”,suddenly“突然”,wildly“疯狂地”均不符合学习基本技能的逻辑。
10.句意:我画的第一根竹子很难看。我感到沮丧,想要放弃。
根据“looked terrible”和“wanted to give up”可知,作者此时情绪低落。upset“沮丧的”,符合情境。proud“骄傲的”,excited“兴奋的”,surprised“惊讶的”均为正面或中性情绪,不符合想放弃的语境。
11.句意:爷爷说:“艺术需要耐心。大师们练习数十年。”
根据“practiced for decades”可知,长期的练习需要耐心。patience“耐心”,符合情境。money“金钱”,luck“运气”,noise“噪音”均与长期练习无直接逻辑联系。
12.句意:慢慢地,我发现每一笔的美感。
呼应第一段提到的“soft beauty”,指作者领悟了绘画的艺术美感。beauty“美感”,符合情境。color“颜色”,size“尺寸”,price“价格”均不符合艺术欣赏的语境。
13.句意:现在我可以画山水鸟兽,这让我内心平静。
艺术创作通常能给人带来内心的宁静和满足感。peaceful“平静的”,符合情境。angry“生气的”,sleepy“困倦的”,hungry“饥饿的” 不符合完成作品后的积极感受。
14.句意:在我们学校,许多学生对这门艺术产生兴趣。
固定搭配“show interest in”意为“对……表现出兴趣”,interest“兴趣”,符合情境。doubt“怀疑”,fear“恐惧”,pain“痛苦”均不符合学生参加俱乐部的动机。
15.句意:我们有一个社团,在社团里分享画作、互相学习。
根据“learn from each other”可知,成员间需要交流分享作品。share“分享”,符合情境。hide“隐藏”,break“打破”,forget“忘记”均不利于互相学习。
16.句意:毛笔将我们和民族文化联系在一起。
呼应文章首句“Chinese painting is a treasure of our culture”,绘画是文化的一部分。culture“文化”,符合情境。future“未来”,weather“天气”,traffic“交通”与绘画的艺术属性均无关。
17.pleasure 18.concentrate 19.appear 20.slow 21.breath 22.similarities 23.experts 24.present 25.tips 26.proud
【导语】本文介绍学习毛笔书法的体验与要点,讲解书写的技巧要求、学习者的常见情况,以及专业从业者的作品展示与经验分享,阐述完成佳作后获得的成就感。
【详解】17.句意:学习毛笔书法给很多人带来极大的乐趣。句子表达书法带给人的美好感受;形容词great后需接名词,方框内pleasure为不可数名词,意为“愉悦、乐趣”,契合语境。
18.句意:当你专注于每一笔时,清晰的线条会缓缓呈现在纸上。书写书法需要把注意力集中在笔画上;时间状语从句主语为you,时态为一般现在时,空格需填谓语动词原形,固定搭配concentrate on表示“专注于”。
19.句意:当你专注于每一笔时,清晰的线条会缓缓呈现在纸上。本句描述运笔后线条在纸面显现的过程;主语clear lines是复数,一般现在时谓语用原形,方框内appear意为“出现、显现”符合文意。
20.句意:你需要放缓运笔速度,同时平稳控制呼吸。书法运笔不宜过快,空格和control并列置于need to后,需用动词原形,slow可作动词表示“放慢、减缓”。
21.句意:你需要放缓运笔速度,同时平稳控制呼吸。书写时平稳呼吸是书法的关键技巧;形容词性物主代词your后接名词,方框内breath作名词意为“呼吸”,贴合书写常识。
22.句意:很多初学者会发现不同毛笔字体之间存在相似之处。从句表达字体间有相近特点;动词find后需接名词作宾语,similar是形容词,转换为复数名词similarities表示“多处相似点”匹配语境。
23.句意:艺术领域的专家常会在画廊展出作品,并把实用技巧分享给学生。后文有授课、展出作品的职业特征,谓语动词为原形说明主语是复数,expert单数变复数experts表示“多位专家”。
24.句意:艺术领域的专家常会在画廊展出作品,并把实用技巧分享给学生。画廊的常见用途是陈列展示艺术作品;主语experts为复数,一般现在时谓语用原形,present作动词有“展出、展示”的含义。
25.句意:艺术领域的专家常会在画廊展出作品,并把实用技巧分享给学生。专家会向学生传授多条实用经验;形容词useful后接名词,tip为可数名词,此处用复数tips表示“多条小贴士、技巧”。
26.句意:每位书法家完成一幅满意的作品后,都会心生自豪之情。完成佳作会产生自豪感;感官动词feel后接形容词作表语,pride是名词,转换为形容词proud意为“自豪的”。
